It's Good, But It Could've Been Better
There's not a lot of dystopian Korean shows or movies so I'm not expecting a lot but this one's just on par with my expectations; nothing more, nothing less.
Acting wise, there's nothing much I could say. It's Kim Woo Bin, just a punch from him could make the scene look a lot more thrilling than it actually is. I was excited when I saw Roh Yoonseo, it was a waste that she has a really minor role, but she's a key character so I understand. Others... they're good. Nothing much to comment about it, no cringey lines nor acting that would make you want to stop watching.
The only problem I have is the story. There are parts where they could've executed the scenes better, making the story more exciting and thrilling, so it's such a waste that some scenes weren't shown with its full potential. The first 5 episodes doesn't have something that would make your heart race in excitement, annoyance, or whatnot. It was plain, but not boring. The plot was a flat line until episode 6. It was good, nonetheless.
As I've mentioned, it's a good drama, but it could've been better. Hoping there would be more dystopian Korean series to come.
